Bobber project.
Well not exactly a project CAR, but it's a project. The story goes like this. My mom bought this Harley Sportster 1200 for my little sister. A week later a van comes over in her lane and hits her. She was only going about 20-25 so neither her or the bike were really hurt. It scared my mom a little, but my sister is fearless lol. For the time being, my sister is on my moms really nice Harley trike. Well my mom owed me a little money, so she gave me the bike.
So here is what I have to work with on my Sportster bobber project. LOL. I already put the stock seat on it, took the windshield off, and ditched the saddle bags and the sissy bar. It gonna end up being flat/semi-gloss black. Exhaust, lowered, drag bars, chopped fenders, solo seat and who know's what else. I rode it 300 miles back from Pensacola last night. I feel greeeeaaat today. Last edited by ChipR4cam; 05-01-2007 at 09:49 AM. |

And a skull face bandana and skeleton gloves. Plus I weigh like 60lbs so. I'm pretty much just gonna look like a skeleton riding a harley.

Looks like a nice starting point you have there. I love bobber styled bikes.
That sissy bar looks ridiculous on that bike though. |

Ohhh yeah it does. It was good to strap my backpack to though. I had it off as soon as I got home. I'll post a picture of what it looks like now a little later on. For as little time as it took to do the bike looks waaay cleaner without all that crap.
